Dear Readers,

I am often asked why I write books and how I know what I write about. Particularly when it is a question of topics which seem to be difficult to grasp such as the soul, love or the meaning of life, one word always comes up which causes uncertainty, doubt or rejection in many people: “faith”.

Nothing I pass on in my books and workshops has anything to do with faith. It is always a question of experiencing and of understanding more and more. Only then can life really change. It is a question of how you personally can attain knowledge and inner certainty about yourself and life.

For me personally – as a constant searcher and critical nit-picker – faith is not the final state. It is a challenge to start looking more closely; because if it is true, it must also be able to be tested and experienced. It is possible that you will have to jettison old knowledge over board on this path and you will certainly need to be interested in and to enjoy trying out new things. If you yearn for experience, understanding and growth with this curious openness, life will bring them to you.

It is not our faith or lack thereof which keeps us from the truth. It is the degree of our interest and our openness which determines how much we understand. It is in our hands.

Nobody can take our experience, our mistakes, from us. Luckily, there are signs which direct curious people to new areas of experience to help them find the path to a higher stage of consciousness. I pass on such signs.

Awakening from the veil of mistakes …
I have often made mistakes – especially in earlier times – and some of these mistakes were so big that they broke me from the inside. Initially, it was the mistake about love. This was why I – in my clueless state – lost my first great and long love, the person who had been “my life” up to then. The mistake which had clouded my vision was so big that I fell into a dark abyss the very moment I recognized what I had done. Completely alone and in free fall, I asked myself over and over again why I had to go through so much pain and how I could have been so blind and have made so many mistakes. At some time – I had to ask these questions for a long time, until I was ready really to understanding the answer – I heard a voice telling me, “Because that is what it means to be human.”

At that time, I did not know who or what this voice was, but this short reply to my abundant questioning contained an incredible amount of sympathy and truth. At the same time, I recognized so many patterns in a flash that I was not able to process them all immediately. My whole life changed from this moment onward.

The start of a new life …
I quit my job as a manager in an industrial company, sold or gave away literally all the possessions I had collected in my life up to then and set off on a search, accompanied only by a large case and a one-way plane ticket. I had no idea where it would take me. The search led me to many countries and to many meetings, with simple people and with high spiritual leaders. I heard many truths which were simultaneously the distillation of the respective cultures and personalities disseminating them. I peeled away the cultural and religious aspects, kept the essence and moved on. Sometimes I went through initiations which expanded my consciousness abruptly and sometimes I remained stuck on one plane for as long as a mistake I was clinging to was finally destroyed.

I recognized that the path to the truth always takes you through gifts of life and through mistakes of life. When all the mistakes are destroyed, only the truth can be seen. Accompanied by indescribable joy, love and freedom.

The Secret Behind the Heart Magnet …
Everything I discovered about love, partnerships and attraction between people, I first examined with many people looking for advice and with participants in my seminars. When I felt sure that it was correct, worked in practice and could be passed on to others, I distilled the essence in my book “The Secret of the Heart Magnet”. This book found its way to what was for me an unbelievable number of readers in many different countries. At the same time, I received more and more questions from people who wanted to understand even more. One reader asked me, “I have understood that my thoughts and my feelings determine my life. But who or what determines my thoughts? I don’t have the feeling that I can really control them.”

The Seven Veils of Truth …
I realized: If a single woman feels this question in herself, many other people will have similar feelings. I knew that the time was right to go further and gave my answer with the book “The Seven Veils of Truth”. This book deals with feelings, emotions, desires, fears, egos and thoughts. It also deals with the path out of the mistakes. With waking up to the truth.

The Secret Plan to Your Life …
The more you understand who or what you are in truth (and what you certainly are not), the clearer your consciousness of your own soul. It is an automatic and logical consequence and it has nothing to do with faith or unbelief. In addition, the really big questions about the meaning of your own life hang from the questions about the soul. I was approached by publishers who wanted me to write a book on the great forces of basic questions of life. This led to “The Secret Plan to Your Life.” This book deals with the soul and fate, with desires and will, destiny and preordination

I wish you great enjoyment when reading these books and many valuable realizations for your further life.

All the best!
